11. Wanessa and Wanny's conversation

AT THE SAME TIME

WANESSA'S POINT OF VIEW:

I didn't understand what was happening. I wasn't supposed to be the main character in this mess, the one whose entire world shifted and shattered with every step I took. I supposed to stay in shadows and live my life peacefully. What's wrong with me? Why can't I stop this? But then, I smelled it.

It wasn't a feeling that made my mouth water the way food normally did—it was deeper than that. Before I could stop myself, my body was already moving. I tried to think, to slow myself down, but my feet moved faster than my mind could catch up. The rabbit. I could see it now, grazing innocently in front of me, unaware of the predator stalking it from the shadows. My hands no, my claws sharpened, stretching unnaturally. My teeth sank into the soft, warm flesh before I even realized what I was doing.

"No. No, no, no!"I shouted.

I froze for a moment, blood staining my hands. The taste was... wrong. But I couldn't stop. I couldn't even bring myself to care. It was like my body was on autopilot, no longer listening to me. What the hell is happening to me?

I barely noticed the blood smeared across my lips, the meat in my mouth. I didn't care. I couldn't care.

"You're fighting it." she growled, sounding more like a warning than anything. "Stop resisting. You know you want it."

I flinched, hearing her in my head like she was right there with me. Her words were harsh, demanding, but underneath them, there was something else, something almost comforting.

"Wanny, please." I tried to reach out to her, to call her back into my mind.

"You can't run anymore. This is who you are now."She said.

I didn't want to accept it, didn't want to be this… this creature that was losing control. I'm not ready for this.

But Wanny didn't care..I can't stop this.

Everything around me seemed to blur, my senses so heightened I could hear the leaves rustling in the wind, the beating of my own heart, and Wanny's growl echoing in my mind. It was all too much, too fast, and I felt myself slipping further away from myself, further into the wolf that wanted to take over. I was supposed to be a human and not a monster. In the game the character was already having his wolf form, so I didn't understand why it happened to me. I was supposed to live in shadows and watch their real mate appear but all of them wanted ME. Seven years ago nobody paid attention to me and now I wanted return to that life.

I staggered backward, my hands trembling as I wiped the blood from my lips. My thoughts were clouded, but in the center of it all, I heard her voice.

"What is happening to me?" I gasped, breath coming in uneven, shaky bursts. "Why did you want me? Why did you choose me?"

The question hung in the air, unanswered for a heartbeat. Then, I felt a surge of energy, a low growl that vibrated through my chest. It wasn't angry it was something else, something deeper.

"I didn't choose you." Wanny said, her voice much softer now, like a whisper against my mind. "You were always meant to be mine. You are special, Wanessa. The bloodline you carry... it's the bloodline of the moon itself."

"Bloodline of the moon?" I whispered aloud, though I wasn't sure if it was to myself or to her.

Wanny's presence filled my senses again. Her growl, gentle but full of purpose, rumbled through me.

"Yes. You are the True Luna, the heart of the pack. You were never meant to be hidden. You were meant to lead, to unite. But you've been locked away, kept from your power."Wanny said.

A wave of confusion and fear swept through me.

"I don't know how to lead. I don't know how to be what you want." I was trembling now, trying to pull myself together, but every word Wanny spoke unraveled me more.

"You are not meant to fight this. It's your destiny." She replied, calm but firm. "You're not weak, Wanessa. You've always known, deep down, that you are different."

"Then why now?" I asked, more to myself than to her. "Why is everything falling apart? Why am I losing control?"

"Because you can no longer deny who you are." Wanny's voice answered, calm and sure. "The bond has awakened, Wanessa. And you will need to face it. You can't hide anymore. They are coming."

"I not true luna. You have gotten a wrong person."I said to her angrily.

"You are, I don't know what you mean by 'game' but I not leaving you."She said.

Soon I smelled something familiar. I froze, suddenly aware of the sounds that had been creeping toward me from the shadows. The unmistakable sound of paws, heavy and purposeful, pounding against the earth. Wolves. Three of them.

"No." Panic surged through me, and I turned, already knowing what I had to do.

My legs moved before I could think, before I could reason with myself. I couldn't face them not yet. Not like this. I couldn't let them see me like this, torn between who I was and who I was becoming. My senses flared to life, the woods around me becoming sharp and clear. But the scent of the three wolves... it was so close. Too close.

'Why were they following me? Why didn't they leave me alone"I asked her.

"Run, Wanessa." Wanny urged, her voice in my mind, both a comfort and a warning. "You cannot hide forever, but you must give yourself time to think. Time to breathe."

"Wanessa." It was Xavier's voice, rough with worry, but also… determination.

"Stop running." Then it came Michael's, deep and commanding.

"Come back to us." Terrence's voice was softer, almost pleading.

But I couldn't. I couldn't let them catch me like this. Why was this happening? Why couldn't I just be…normal? And as I ran deeper into the forest, with the scent of the three wolves closing in, I couldn't help but realize one thing. No matter how far I ran, they would always be there, chasing me.
